tejek,
With your mention of the Native Americans...there are those here that are still mad that in the early 1900's they 'finally' became citizens of the United States of America.

The all-time classic stupid utterance on the rights of Native Americans was said by Chief Justice John Marshall of the US Supreme Court in 1823. Marshall decreed that .."Cherokees had certain rights to their land in Georgia by dint of their "occupancy" but that whites had superior rights owing to their "discovery."

The logic of Marshall lives on today here on SI, but now they are ranting about homosexuals...but not the Ted Haggards and the Senator Craigs...because for every rule there is always the exception.

Speaking of Georgia and all the Christian voters there that keep sending Rep. Westmoreland, back to Washington, DC. because he is so intuned to his supporters, Westmoreland was the Mensa guy that kept trying to get the 10 Commandments hung up in the Halls of Congress. However, finally someone posed to Westmorland a simple question....."Rep. Westmorland, tell me what the 10 Commandment are?" Too which he stammered and finally could name a grand total of THREE of the ten. Then back in Georgia his defense to the minion was that, like Palin, he had been set up just like Katie Couric, did to her.
